Více o knize
With <b>Price of a Child</b>--the story of Ginnie Pryor (cook, mistress and servant to a Virginia planter) and her struggle with slavery in 1855--Cary continues has created a work that elevates the reputation she created with <i>Black Ice</i>, her memoir which won her comparisons to Maya Angelou and Richard Wright. In a novel that examines the price of freedom and the value of a child's life, <b>Price of a Child</b> is "a stunning achievement...a deeply engrossing story.... Cary's impeccable research and seamless narrative carry us along" (<i>Philadelphia Inquirer</i>).
